    Q+A Part 1: The Basics

    @bernard222 I'm 32, and my partner is 35. We have been together for about four and a half years. We are currently not married, but he recently said he DOES want to get married before we TTC. This was a surprise to me (we'd talked about it before, but I had thought our conclusion was that we...

    Q+A Part 2: WTT

    @anonymouspractioner Yeah, it was definitely making me crazy! We've talked about the timeline endlessly; he's at least very good about communicating, so I bring it up all the time. He does know that I don't believe he won't push it back again, but I think you may be right that a hard and fast...

    Q+A Part 2: WTT

    @anonymouspractioner Oh dang. I feel you too. I wanted to have had at least ONE kid before I turned 30, and we're now looking at me being 33/34 when our first kid is born. He's still saying he wants two, so... we're getting pretty close to that "now or never" deadline. It's hard for me to tell...

    Q+A Part 2: WTT

    @bernard222 We're waiting because my partner isn't ready yet. I've been waiting about four years. A more fair estimate is two years, though, since it really wasn't reasonable for us to try before that. We have currently agreed to try in February or March, but I honestly no longer believe my...

    @slawbama Awww, I love snakes! I had a Florida King Snake when I was a teen. Corn snakes are so pretty. :)

    Q+A Part 3: Fur babies!

    @bernard222 Yeah, our cat is a stunner. He's the prettiest baby. His eyes are SO BLUE. Hahahaha, oh dachshunds. They're so much trouble. Your story made me laugh out loud too. :-P

    Q+A Part 3: Fur babies!

    @bernard222 We have one cat. He is a giant, fluffy, flame-point Ragdoll named Indy (which is short for Independence). My partner rescued Indy on July 4th about 7 years ago. This is not our cat, but he looks exactly like this...

    Q+A Part 3: Fur babies!

    @joslyn04 Awww, poor dude. Hugs for him. Trios are a good idea. I've always said dachshunds are like Pringles: you can't have just one!

    Q+A Part 3: Fur babies!

    @joslyn04 Fellow doxie person! I've been trying to slowly convince my partner we need at least two dachshunds. I do worry about their back troubles, though. Does yours have IVDD? :(

    Q+A Part 2: WTT

    @britebore Hahaha. Amen to that! :-P Sometimes I wonder if I'm caught in a readiness loop? Like, every time we delay starting to try, I give myself another pre-conception "project" to work on, to keep myself busy and feel like I'm making progress. But then once the project is completed, I...

    Q+A Part 2: WTT

    @britebore I feel like your answers to 1 and 4 are basically identical to mine! My partner wants things to just be "relaxing" and have "us time" for a while. From my point of view... what were the last four and a half years, but "us time"?! (I do have to agree with him that the last two years...
